What to expect
Shinmei Fireworks Festival The Shinmei Fireworks Festival is the largest fireworks festival in Yamanashi. Every year, about 20,000 fireworks are launched on the day, and last year it attracted about 200,000 people to watch. The local fireworks manufacturing skills are said to have originated from the Takeda clan that once ruled Yamanashi. In the Edo period, fireworks here were used to worship the gods. They were set off locally every year and were called the “Ichikawa Fireworks Festival”. It was known as one of the three major fireworks festivals in Japan at the time. The highlight of the festival each year is the Nishakudama, a large, flower-shaped fireworks display that explodes to a diameter of 500 meters. The fireworks are accompanied by music, turning the night sky of Yamanashi into a beautiful fireworks town.
- The product includes a step-level viewing seat. It is recommended to bring a picnic mat and lay it on the ground when viewing.
- Before the fireworks display begins, you will be free to go to nearby stalls or shopping streets to buy local delicacies
- Dinner will be served in a bento made with local ingredients from Yamanashi Prefecture
All-you-can-eat Kyoho grape picking Yamanashi Prefecture is known as the Fruit Kingdom, producing different high-quality fruits throughout the year. Among them, Yamanashi ranks first in Japan in grape production. When visiting Yamanashi in the summer, don’t forget to enjoy some fresh, juicy grapes! Why not experience the joy of picking and eating fruit at a Yamanashi fruit farm?
Omuroyama Cable Car Mount Omuro is not only a symbol of the Izu Peninsula, but also a designated “National Natural Monument”. It is a dormant volcano about 580 meters high and was selected as one of the “Eight Views of Ito”. From spring to summer, the grass and trees growing along the mountain are bright green, earning it the nickname “Matcha Mountain”! The ride takes about 4 minutes, and your feet seem to be able to touch the grass swaying in the wind.
Jonggasaki Coast The Jogasaki Coast on the Izu Peninsula is a volcanic coast formed 4,000 years ago when lava from the eruption of Mt. Omuro flowed into the Pacific Ocean. In addition to the magnificent Pacific Ocean, you can also enjoy the forest scenery and the unique sea suspension bridge “Kadowaki Suspension Bridge” while walking along it. Every tourist will always walk through it with excitement. It is both exciting and unique!
Hakone Shrine With a history of over 1,200 years, Hakone Shrine is the leading shrine for bringing good fortune in the Kanto region of Japan. When you come to Hakone Shrine, you must check in at the huge Torii gate located in Lake Ashi. It is not only very popular among foreigners, but many Japanese people who come to Hakone will also check in and take photos here. Don’t miss it!











Reviews
The overall itinerary was good, with grape picking, fireworks viewing, Kinosaki Coast, and Hakone Shrine sightseeing experiences. However, the itinerary was tight, so unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to go up Mount Omuro.
many thanks
